A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Amlicites
AMLICITES. The followers of Amlici. After their dispersion, and their flight to Hermounts, they are no more referred to by the Nephite historians. In fulfilment of the word of the Lord to Nephi, that those who fought against him and his seed should have a mark put upon them, they marked themselves with red on their foreheads as did the Lamanites, but they did not shave their heads as did that race. Of course they did not realize they were fulfiling prophecy when they thus acted or they would not have done so, as it was not their intention to fulfil the words of those from whom they had seceded.
